Fusion is the noblest form of summoning!.

Chapter 764 Other Arenas (4K)

Hikaru Amagi left Duel Academy and headed to the Golden Country.

The pre-event promotion for the "KC Cup" will not change because of one more or one less person.

On the Japanese island, Katsuya Jonouchi stretched and wearily shouted to the sky.

"You damned seahorse—"

His girlfriend, brother, and sister couldn't help but laugh, especially Mai Kongque, who had been directly invited by Kaiba Corporation and didn't need to participate in the preliminary rounds or auditions. So she was just here to accompany Cheng Nei.

Actually, they were a little worried, since it had been a long time since Jonouchi had participated in a formal competition. If he subconsciously drew a card first, wouldn't that result in an immediate loss?

Fortunately, Jonouchi was not going to lose in these preliminary duels. The duelists he encountered the first two times were real newcomers who hadn't even figured out the rules of liberation before they went up against him. Jonouchi felt a little sorry for them and thought that he shouldn't take his anger out on them.

Jonouchi quickly secured two wins, and then things just went on awkwardly.

the reason is simple.

Getting five wins in one day is not an easy task.

1胜只能和1胜的决斗者决斗，2胜只能和2胜的决斗者决斗，累计5胜胜出、累计5败则退出，标准的刷人手段。

Originally, Jonouchi's idea was to finish the fight as soon as possible and leave.

To his utter surprise, even a simple "2 wins" could stump him.

Because there are too many people!

With a large number of players and limited dueling arenas, many players who have only won once in a day don't even get a chance to play a second match.

Of course, they weren't in a hurry, after all, it would take a long time, and it would be their turn sooner or later.

But for Jonouchi, this was too much of a torment.

If it weren't for the many "fans" who were pestering him today, asking for photos, autographs, and soothing his agitated heart, he probably wouldn't have been able to take it anymore.

"Jouchi-kun——"

A familiar voice rang out, and Jonouchi, who was half-reclining in the chair, suddenly woke up and jumped up.

"game!!"

A delighted smile spread across his face. In a flash, he was beside Yugi Muto, putting his arm around Yugi and hugging him excitedly: "Long time no see! What have you been up to lately!"

"Haha, I've been helping Mr. Pegasus with testing lately—ah, Honda, Shizuka, and Ms. Mai. Long time no see."

It's been a long time since I've seen my old friends, and I'm very happy playing the game.

After graduation, everyone went their separate ways to pursue their own futures. It's already a rare treat that we can get together like this now.

Fortunately, Jonouchi came to participate in the pre-tournament competition, and his friends and family came to watch him duel, which gave Game directly the opportunity to contact him.

"I visited my master a while ago, and he's still in good health." Jonouchi laughed heartily, patting Yugi on the shoulder. "It's just a pity I didn't see you then."

This must be referring to the incident with the dinosaur and Amagi-kun, right? Yugi nodded slightly.

Jonouchi and Yugi caught up for a short while when someone noticed them and a scream suddenly pierced the roof. Jonouchi and the others were startled, and Jonouchi instinctively grabbed Yugi and started running at top speed.

Sure enough, a deafening scream rang out behind them.

"Mr. Game!" "And Katsuya Jonouchi!"

Wow, a star-studded gathering!

"Do we have a chance to duel with Mr. Game?!"

Most of the people who come here are duelists. When they see the idol of idols, the world's "strongest" duelist Yugi Muto, they are naturally extremely excited. Some even skip their duels and rush out to find them.

After running away for quite a while, Jonouchi and Yugi finally stopped. They looked at each other and smiled, feeling as if they had returned to their high school days when they were hiding from idle people in society.

"Hoo-ha-" Jonouchi wiped away non-existent sweat, chuckled twice, and then became serious again. "It's all Kaiba's fault. Otherwise, we wouldn't have had to go through this."

"Haha, well, before I came here, Kaiba-kun told me that you don't need to participate in the warm-up anymore."

"?"

"He also said, 'You're such a grown man, aren't you ashamed to come here and bully newbies during the pre-launch promotion?'" The game quoted him verbatim.

"??"

"Well, he finally said that if you tell the people at Haima that someone was missing from the list, they'll add them back—"

"Kaiba!!! Bastard!!! I won't let him get away with this!!!" Jōnouchi's furious declaration echoed through the alley.

He could almost picture Seto Kaiba saying those words with his usual cold expression.

Damn it—

But he had to admit it.

Not participating in the pre-selection or preliminary rounds is a good thing for him and for others.

He didn't want the match to turn into a book signing.

Since we can skip this step, we're definitely happy.

However, this "loss and recovery" was left in an awkward position by the seahorse's outrageous actions.

but--

Seeing the game again would definitely make me happy.

Finally, they found a small coffee shop, sat down, and prepared to have a good chat. As they got into the conversation, the game couldn't resist taking out a deck of cards.

Jonouchi noticed that the cards in this deck were unusual, being half orange and half green.

"What is this?" Jonouchi asked curiously.

"Pendulum Monster"

Pendulum Monster.

It is said to be a unique card of the Pendulum Dimension. Unlike Synchro, Xyz, and Fusion, it is a monster card that exists in the Main Deck but can also be added to the Extra Deck.

They are both monsters and special unclassifiable magic cards.

Jonouchi had overheard some duelists talking about this before, but this was the first time he had ever seen a Pendulum Card.

This looks really interesting!

The game shuffled the cards, placed them on the table, and asked with a smile, "Jounouchi-kun, would you like to try the Pendulum cards?"

He pointed to his left, where there was another pendulum deck.

"Hmm—I might encounter pendulum duelists in the tournament in the future, it seems like a good idea to give it a try."

After saying that, he couldn't help but laugh again.

"The first time we played duels, it was on a table at our school."

He casually picked up the deck next to him.

"I won't lose so easily this time!"

A lazy afternoon.

Long-lost friends began their rare reunion.

Meanwhile, other things were happening in other "pre-heating" locations.

In the realm of synchrotrons, after Jaeger became the new president of City, his original strategy was to allow the city to recuperate and improve its reputation in the world.

In his view, the "KC" Cup is a very good event.

This is one of the few events since the WRGP that can revitalize people around the world without creating hostility between them.

Therefore, after Seto Kaiba from the fused dimension extended the invitation, Jaeger accepted it almost without hesitation.

They had just finished the WRGP tournament and had plenty of experience. There were also selection arenas around the world for the competition, so this task was not difficult for them.

What really caused him some trouble was the "special guest".

Players like Jack and Crowe will definitely not refuse an invitation.

But the other powerful duelists were more of a nuisance to him.

Where are the members of the formidable runner-up team "New World" in the WRGP competition?
Can't find it!?

Look for it!

They are among the most powerful duelists in our world, let's go find them!

What?! Yusei Fudo doesn't want to participate in this competition; he only wants to conduct experiments?!
What are you waiting for? Take me with you! I'll kneel down and beg him. He's got a temper; he can't possibly refuse me!
What do you mean by "you discovered someone who is already dead"?

Uh—it doesn't matter, what matters is their dueling skill level... Holy crap, it's actually Yusei Fudo's "boss"! ? ?
What are we waiting for? Let's go ask them for help!
Don't you want to fight for the title of the strongest duelist across multiple levels?
Even if we don't strive for it, we should at least try to bring some glory to our own world.

It was in this atmosphere that Synchro Dimension held the KC Cup qualifiers in a lively atmosphere. After all, they had just finished a world-class dueling tournament, so they had no shortage of venues or manpower, and their busy schedules were quite simple.

But there is also a dimension...

Super Dimension.

Several bolts of lightning struck down from the sky. Yuma and his companions dodged the lightning, and after a cloud of dust, Yuma saw seven shadowy figures not far away.

When the thunder subsided and the dust settled, standing in the middle was his familiar friend—

"shark!?"

Yuma asked in astonishment, "Why would you stand with those Balian guys?"

Beside Yuma, his friends III, IV, V, and Kotori Mizuki also looked at the shark. Not far away, Kaito Amagi, who was lying on the ground due to some kind of impact, struggled to open his eyes and looked over there.

Ryoga Kamishiro's expression was stern as he looked at Yuma Tsukumo.

"Sharks... it seems like it's been a long time since they were called that."

"But right now, I am neither a shark nor Lingya."

"I am Nash!"

"Nashu of Balian!"

what? !

Ninety-nine horses stood there, stunned.

"What?" The girls looked at him in disbelief.

Yuma Tsukumo was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and said, "Shark, what are you talking about!"

"You're actually a Balian? How is that possible?"

Nash didn't speak, he just looked at him calmly.

"shark……"

Cold sweat dripped down the forehead of the ninety-nine-footed horse. He looked at Nash, not knowing what to do.

"Say something, shark!!"

"Well... I'll show you the evidence then."

He raised his right hand towards the sky.

"This is me, my true self!"

"Balian, transform!"

At the same time, the six people around him shouted in unison, "Balian, transform!"

The shark's body instantly disintegrated into purple particles. Then, armor and a mask appeared on its body, and finally, it transformed into a "person" similar to Astral, but with a completely different style.

Baalyans!

"We are the Seven Kings of Balian!"

The seven people began to call out their names in turn.

"The true user of the Galaxy Eye, Mizael!"

"Everything is in my hands, Kirako!"

"His roaring fists can shatter even gods, Harit!"

"Ta-da! I am Vector!"

"Even the scorching sun can be frozen, the Ice Sword, Merag!"

"The white shield of the Balian, Drubey!"

“And then there is me…” Nash flung off his crimson cloak, crossed his arms, and slowly began to speak, “The leader of the Seven Kings of Balian, Nash.”

Everyone was shocked by this shocking fact.

This behavior, which resembled a team announcing its name, caused their brains to freeze. But what was even more shocking was that their close friend, whom they spent every day with, was not human!

"How, how is this possible—" Yuma exclaimed in disbelief, "You are, Nash of the Barian?!"

In this world, the conflicts between races have been laid bare. What Yuma Tsukumo couldn't bear was that he never expected his best friend to be a Baalian...

Now that things have come to this, these people no longer care about the KC Cup!
Because, whether they are humans, astral beings, or Baalians, they have to risk their lives!
Only in this way can their future arrive.

Compared to the fierce battles of the Xyz Dimension, the Pendulum Dimension appears to be peaceful and tranquil.

The arrival of the KC Cup is like a golden opportunity for Akama Reiji.

On the one hand, he needs enough energy to conduct the "Zack" experiment.

On the other hand, he was worried that his own people, whose style was more "bloodthirsty," might cause the perpetual motion machine to reverse during the duel. After all, the new perpetual motion machine on the Synchro Dimension was still under development, and what they had here was naturally just an ordinary perpetual motion machine.

In the past, their duels were more about "fun" than victory, which is why "entertainment duels" were so popular in this dimension. Of course, another reason is that the strongest duelist in this world is an entertainment duelist, so his duels are also widely known in this world.

But the KC Cup provided a good excuse.

Choosing the strongest doesn't mean choosing the most interesting duelist. Therefore, the duels need to be as pure as possible, so that they don't develop in the direction that the audience likes. This way, the perpetual motion machine shouldn't have any problems.

Furthermore, after experiencing the WRGP tournament in Synchro Dimension, the players and spectators from their world who followed them have basically realized their shortcomings, especially Yuya, who seems to have recently discovered some kind of secret, and his abilities have been increasing rapidly.

Who knows, they might achieve some good results in the KC Cup.

He smiled and gently pushed up his glasses.

Anyway-

He looked at the increasingly realistic and majestic "Zack" in his laboratory and couldn't help but feel a surge of pride!
Under his governance and leadership, their basic dimension is thriving!

hum-

He instinctively pushed up his glasses again and looked Zach up and down.

Is it an illusion?

He vaguely felt that Zach's eyes seemed to have flickered just now.
Akama Reiji gently nodded his forehead.

Having experienced Sophia's cooperation and the dimensional synchronization, he wouldn't actually consider that fleeting moment a mere "illusion," but rather thought...

Could it be that I'm about to create an "elf"?

He felt much more invigorated.

If they could really create elves, their world would be a little safer.

Critical point dimension.

"Ok?"

The "KC Pre-heating" competition, organized by Haima Automobile, is in full swing.

As previously advertised by Haima Corporation, the KC Cup is a tournament dedicated to determining the strongest duelist across all dimensions.

Therefore, the KC Cup will naturally be open to elves and dimensional explorers.

Of course, due to the difference in the number of people, the required number of wins also varies in different regions.

The critical point is a huge intersecting dimension where there are people and elves, so the requirement is also 5 times.

Yu Li frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled.

Why did I suddenly feel something was off?
"Kid, the duel's about to start, and you're still daydreaming?"

His opponents were very dissatisfied with him.

This dissatisfaction stemmed not only from Yuri's dismissive attitude, but also from something else—the clothes.

Yuli, and the people he brought, were all wearing the uniforms of the Fusion Army!

These are the remnants of the Fusion Army!

They actually dared to openly participate in the KC Cup pre-event!?
When he first appeared, the duelists and the Kaiba Corporation staff were on high alert, but he himself politely inquired, "This is a tournament to determine the strongest duelist, and I am also a duelist, so I should be able to participate, right?"

Upon hearing that the "second generation" of the Fusion Army had actually taken the initiative to participate in the competition, Kaiba surprisingly let out a chuckle and then told the staff to continue with their work as usual.

No matter who you are, in the KC Cup you only have one identity, and that is—Duelist!
"Oh dear, sorry, sorry~" Yuri chuckled softly, "Senior, let's begin then—"

"Duel!" "Duel!"

Lina Zan, LP: 4000.
Travel time, LP: 4000.
Preliminary round, 2 wins!

"I'll strike first—I'll teach you, the remnants of the Fusion Army, a lesson you won't forget!"
